Basically authors and illustrators from around the country gathered in NYC to attend lectures and workshops and hopefully do a little networking. It was pretty swell to be around people with the same goals and passions as I have, and I returned feeling all fired up and ready to go. I attended some lectures, got some autographs, and yes, managed to squeeze in some fun touristy junk in the downtime.
For the Illustrators' Intensive portion, we had an assignment. We were supposed to illustrate a scene of a birthday party for Snow White and the Seven Dwarves. As to whose birthday it was, what medium to render in, etc, it was all up to us. At the conference we presented our final illustrations. Some were really good, some okay, and some... interesting, but it was really fun seeing everyone's interpretation of the assignment. Here's what I came up with...
Moral: Don't ever **** with Grumpy.

That's so great you got to go to the Conference! I hope you connected with other MN SCBWIers while you were there.
I love Snow White's expression in this. Don't eff with Grumpy indeed....
You got the most out of that experience and I can see you are re-energized for the long haul ahead of you. I'm very proud of you and I love the drawing you did, all the emotions show on the characters and it looks great.
How exciting to attend such a conference. Love the idea you came up with to share with your peers. I love all your stuff!
Dopey is enjoying that FAR too much.
